Overview
- Kearns, in Monday’s ITV interview, said she lost a pregnancy and then developed sepsis, a dangerous reaction to infection.
- She described March 18 at Aston Villa’s training ground, where a 42°C fever prompted the team doctor to send her straight to hospital.
- She and her partner, Luton Town midfielder Liam Walsh, spent three to four days in a Birmingham hospital during what she called “four days in hell.”
- She has returned to the club site for support and light work, does not expect to play again until next season, and still aims for England’s World Cup in Brazil next year.
- Aston Villa and Luton Town shared public support, and her account underscores how quick, on‑site medical decisions can catch sepsis early and prevent it from turning fatal.
